Congrats to Two MAPL Staff Members!

A member of our Circulation Department, library assistant Lee Rothberg, has penned a wonderful short story called "Well Manicured" that can be found in the recently published Chicken Soup for the Soul: Messages from Heaven.  The book can be found in our collection, and the story can be found on page 95.  This is Lee's second published story in the Chicken Soup series! 

Chrissie McGovern, our Youth Services Department Head, has been invited by the New Jersey State Library to attend the Collaborative Library Summer Program Annual Conference in Hershey, Pennsylvania.  As one of only a few New Jersey representatives, Chrissie will work with representatives from all over the nation to choose themes, prepare materials, and brainstorm ideas for upcoming summer reading programs.  Chrissie will travel to Hershey for the conference in April, and all expenses will be paid by the State Library.

Congratulations to both Lee and Chrissie for their fabulous achievements!
